What you want is several in-line modules that you put in the ceiling between the light fixture and the wiring. You'd need one for each fixture. We have one in our kitchen. They work best where you can leave the basic wall switch intact and leave it on all the time, controlling the various lights in the room with a wireless wall switch or switches. (We have also found that they are not as reliable if you replace the original wall switch with a dimming switch or an X10 switch. Something to do with the interrupted circuit, I think.) Anyway, once you have the modules in place, you can get the wireless wall switches that include a dimming switch which will dim the last light turned on. (We also have this in our kitchen and are able to dim the pendant lights over our island counter top). [who] We use X10 in our house.
